Ok people let's rationalize this for everyone: THis show has brought alot of people together who wouldn't work with each other under normal circumstances. CDK, Joey, & Duce are all people that either I have had beef with or vice versa in the past. Now due to this cause, we are all working together. If THAT isn't worth the price of admission...then go see a movie & waste your money! THe Gravediggers haven't been together for 2 years & will NOT ever be together again after...that will be something worth the cost. The main event is a match that fans likley will never see again either...those 4 teams haven't worked each other, & may not ever again. Plus we have SO much stuff to give away in raffles & that. This show has alot of potential, but potential is nothing without your support.

I'm hoping it is a huge success.

I'm still a bit skeptical on how massive this may or may not be. If we raise even 1 g for ACS...I look at it as a success. Now I am hoping for more than that, but I'm not getting my hopes up of packing the venue. With as much work as Dean, myself & countless others have put into this, I'm happy no matter what.

If you're doing this for a good cause, which you are, you've already made it a success. Everyone seems pleased with where this is going for many different reasons, and all of them just. But to be the most honest I can be, the first ticket you sell will be your greatest accomplisment. It's a good thing to even WANT to do for someomone else.
I hear postitive stuff coming out about this show all the time. And everyone's excited. I know it'll go well. Just keep focused and keep spirits high.

Looking forward to it as well. I don't make it to many shows anymore, so I can't wait to road trip with some friends to Sterling and help support a great cause.

All of this PLUS pre-show matches including: The Horror Show, Cheyanne, Mia Martinez, The Kent Boys, Halo, & others. Doors DO open at 6 for the band, & pre-show kicks off at 6:30. My suggestion is to get there early for best seats (especially if you plan to get them at the door) because you never know what'll happen before the show kicks off at 7.

Dean & I decided to give the CPW fans a pre-show morsel. SInce cancer is not just something that men go through, we've added Cheyanne-v-Mia Martinez in a Pre-show match!
With all of the workers (46) & behind the scenes guys (too many to say), this will likley be the largest locker room an IL indie show has seen!

With all of the workers (46) & behind the scenes guys (too many to say), this will likley be the largest locker room an IL indie show has seen! A large locker room is not always a good thing. This show has all the makings of a cluster f**k. Too many guys running things, too many workers, too much going on. The crowd may lose sight of the show and become bored. 46 guys in a locker room is far too many. I know that the guys are being paid for this show. With 46 guys, and $10 per ticket, what do you think the payoff for the charity is going to be? My guess is not much. It almost appears like you are stroking your own ego by booking all these guys. I put over a lot of the guys on the show, and I am in no way taking away from the purpose or the cause. I am just saying that from my experience, you may be in for a very long night.

Not at all am I stoking my ego. Sponsors have taken care of the costs for talent & everything else. ALL ticket sales will go directly to the ACS. As far as all of the makings for a "cluster f**k", There won't be too many people running things. I think we've put together the best show possible. We decided when we began that we would do as much as we could for the show since it is a charity event. We wanted to give the people coming out to support this cause their money's worth. Now when AAW ran 13 matches in one night, I didn't hear anyone get upset or say anything negative. We thought we'd do all we can to get people to come to this show. We all decided that the show has a time limit & will not exceed that limit unless something dramatic happens. Everyone's worked hard to get this to go, & I would appreciate your facts to be correct when you try to discredit this in any way.

I am in no way discrediting you, and if I came across that way then I apologize. To use AAW as an example, they have a very talented booker running things. I highly doubt that the person with the book on this show has as mmuch experience as Danny Daniels. Yes, there were 13 matches on that show, but 2 of them were under 3 minutes, and a few others were under 7. I'm just giving you some food for thought. I will be there. I'll buy my ticket to support the cause, and I wish you guys nothing but success

Due to unforseen reasons, Silas Young will not be at this show. Not to worry though, taking his place will be Chandler McClure & managing Chandler for the evening will be...
Joey Eastman!
